As mentioned earlier...choco and I are on the outs😒 but when I was a kid There was a candy bar called Marathon bars...O to the M to the F to the G!!! Braided caramel covered with milk chocolate measuring almost one foot long...put that bad boy in the freezer for an hour and you could take all day to eat one!!! That shit would set you straight! Love to post a link but haven't figured out how on this confounded New device😤😤😤

Just one of those things that doesn't agree with me any longer...😒

Twix, the only candy with the cookie crunch. Unsure about shrinkage, but I do love Cadbury eggs and they definitely have progressively decreased in size.

reply

All food is getting smaller!!! Maybe not M&ms...

reply

But they do make the M&M minis. Eventually they'll swap them out for regular sized and see if we notice

reply

And that's how they fuck ya!

reply

Not just food, either! Used to be there were mega-big toilet paper rolls. Now the "mega-big" ones are only slightly bigger than the former regular size 😬

reply

Twix was my answer too
You beat me to it!

reply

Twix for me too, love them. You can get these knock off twix bars from Lidl, they're delicious too. I often buy the 5 pack.

reply

I don't eat sweets anymore but probably Fry's mint cream or the fruit one if they still exist.

Isn't Cadbury now American plasticy chocolate? I seem to remember a cream egg/Dairy Milk uproar a while back.

Sophisticated? Not the way I scoffed them. I also love used to love Mintola (Munchies not so much) although don't think they qualify as a bar. I'm a sucker for dark chocolate and mint or orange. Sad part is if I eat dark chocolate now I get spots so quit. Vanity over gluttony ☺️

Yes. Do they still make Tunnocks snowballs ??

reply

Malted milk balls are great. This time of year they also have malted milk "eggs". I like Whoppers but I once had a different brand that had a thicker chocolate coating and they were much better. Unfortunately, I can remember the name.

I love the Butterfinger and Reese's Nutrageous. And I just had a Knoppers bar in Germany. Yummy!😋

reply

[deleted]

What I love about the Butterfinger is the crunchiness of the peanut butter filling.

It's a winning combination! I also love to eat peanut butter with chocolate sprinkles on bread!

reply

My favorite is the Reese's Crispy Crunchy Bar. (I call it the Crispity Crunchity Bar. You know it's serious when you have a pet name for a candy bar.)

reply

So true.

Many years ago, Reese's had an ad campaign that portrayed the pb/chocolate combo as a happy accident. Someone would be sitting there with an open container of peanut butter and someone else bearing a chocolate bar would trip and the chocolate bar would end up in the pb container. They would both be annoyed and complain:

"You got chocolate in my peanut butter!"

"You got peanut butter on my chocolate!"

Then each would try the combination and just bliss out.

However it really happened, it was an important moment for all of humanity.

Nestlie's Crunch! Love those! However.......
I have to tell you that I just made one delectable treat today. I covered plump juicy grapes in melted milk chocolate morsels. I laid them out on a cookie sheet lined with waxed paper.
Once that chocolate hardens, you have a treat! bite into that hard chocolate, and you get such a nice fresh tangy burst of flavor. My sister turned me on to this. You will love it! Much better than the raisins. FAR better than Chocolate covered cherries.
Oh! They also look like cute little Easter Eggs! Perfect for the season!

The grapes really are refreshing!
So if your daughter's friend doesn't like fruit or chocolate, what could make this one happy?
How about a Payday bar? Maybe a Bit O Honey? That one has been around for years! I hate to say this, but when you bite into one, it seems as though it's been around for years!

reply

And it feels like it stays on your teeth for years after you eat it! Very sticky stuff.

reply

Yup! Downright GROSS!

There's a place downtown that sells ruby chocolate. Not simply with added coloring, but the natural kind that was introduced last year. They say it tastes sweet and a little sour. I believe it's not cheap, but I'd like to try it anyway very soon!

reply

[deleted]

It's a new variety of chocolate besides the milk, dark and white varieties. It's made from the ruby cocoa bean, which gives it its natural pink color.

reply

would love to try it

The store downtown apparently had ruby chocolate easter eggs, but I haven't been in the neigbourhood lately. Otherwise I would've bought one or two of those mini eggs. It's all I can afford! 😁
